Always the best. Even with delivery they will call to verify what you want if needed. Great service.

Had the pleasure of visiting this past weekend, first time in just over 25 years since I lived in Madison. The moak pa was even better than I remembered. Food, the service, all wonderful.

I ordered the shrimp noodle salad. Unfortunately not a lot of flavor, needed a sauce or rub. Shrimp were good size and cooked properly.
Unfortunately the food quality has been pretty low the last few times we’ve eaten here or gotten takeout. The drunken noodles were totally flavorless and gloopy and the potstickers tasted storebought and stale. The prices have climbed in the last few years as well. Their curries are usually OK but the other Thai and Lao options in town are far better choices IMO.

From the spring rolls to the satay, and curry to the fried rice - so,.so good. I'm a 1* hot max but my guest enjoyed the ?. Excellent service with a neighborhood vibe. 5* all day long.

Good food, bad service. That’s about it.
Myself and a friend got dinner. We had to flag down the waiter to order our food. No one ever came to our table asking for starters or drinks.
When we ordered, we asked if the two dishes we were getting came with rice. Our waiter said that they do. Okay…
When our food arrives about 20 mins later, he informs us that they ran out of regular rice and asks if sticky rice is okay. We take the sticky rice since we’re hungry. How does a Laotian restaurant run out of regular rice?
We got two servings of sticky rice for the two entrees. We were very shocked to find out that the sticky rice was tacked onto our bill even though we were told that the rice would come with the dishes. Even if they were out of white rice, they should not be charging extra for sticky rice when they literally did not give us any other option!
The slow service, lack of communication, and price of this place do not warrant a return.

Everything was delicious and service was excellent! Recommend the Crab Rangoon and Pineapple Curry.
Vegetarian options: Tofu can be substituted in almost all of the dishes. Also offer Mock Duck as another meatless option.

Was super excited to try this place and sooo disappointed. unfortunately waited over an hour and a half for our food with empty drinks. Tables seated well after us who were served food first. No one checked up on us throughout the dinner. After an hour and a half we just asked them to make it a to go order and asked for the check. They bring out the check and food still isn’t there.I don’t know if they were understaffed, unprepared or what. I mentioned I was disappointed on the way out and no one really seemed to care. A couple of half hearted apologies. A discount, communication, or an explanation could have changed the entire experience. No one seemed interested in that.
